SAN JOSE, CA -- For patrons and enthusiasts of laser technology, a powerful resource is now available on the World Wide Web. Coherent Laser Group's updated web site (www.cohr.com/clg/clg_home.html), designed by San Jose's Tam Communications, provides a diverse and detailed body of information to clients and industry professionals with a clean look and a fluid navigation system.

CLG's expanded site reflects both its expertise in laser technology and its commitment to customers. Visitors can view in-depth product information, learn about specific laser technologies and their applications, or peruse recent articles published in industry journals. A calendar of events provides a year-long, worldwide schedule of industry trade shows and conferences. The customer support section of the site includes a broad range of information and services, and one click on the world map connects potential customers with their closest Coherent Laser Group representative.

The renovated site also affords visitors a consistent, intuitive navigational scheme, allowing them to access information quickly and easily. In addition, the new Site Index provides an outline of the entire site for immediate targeting of a specific area or topic. The "What's New" section enables visitors to locate all recent updates at once.

"Tam's expertise in the multimedia and web development area is considerable," commented Savina Angel, Marcom Project Manager for Coherent Laser Group. "The team that was assigned to our account, lead by Siiri Tuckwood, guided us through the difficult task of revamping our web site. Their input was valuable and helped us move through the process quickly."

Tam Communications' Executive Producer, Siiri Tuckwood, managed the project from design through completion. Sandra Silva developed the art direction for the site, dk blanar lent his talents to art and design, and Nathan Guerra and Timothy O'Connor Fraser completed the site's JavaScript, CGI, and HTML.
